Autoimmune disorders in oral lichen planus: A systematic review and meta-analysis.

Our study demonstrates the existence of a comorbidity between autoimmune thyroid diseases as well as between diabetes mellitus and OLP respectively. Quality of evidence should be upgraded on other autoimmune diseases (fibromyalgia, gastrointestinal disorders, rheumatic diseases, Sjogren's syndrome, lupus erythematosus, and dermatological diseases) for which the current data do not allow us to know whether they are really associated with OLP.
